Well, a combination of the time, the process id, and a sequence number
isn't actually random! ;-)
However, it's certainly better than using the time on its own, as has
commonly been done in the past.
Perl has a Math::TrulyRandom module. "The source of the randomness is
from interrupt timing discrepancies."
